Great video. I’ll have to try some of this in my next game. My players have some big battles coming up

Mass Combat Rules, which you can change, add, improve: drive.google.com/file/d/1VfpBI7Sv-tzBCx2MV9NyKIC6Znd2fLxX/view?usp=drive_link

Neat! you should look at pathfinders (if you didnt already)

Didn't expect my horror story to end up on youtube lol

2:05 The monster sounds like a homebrew 5E version of Dagon from Devil May Cry 4... Frog devils who create a snow-storm to hide within, and use their tongue as their ranged weapon... they also have to antenae wtih angler fish-like female forms to attract prey to them. This DM seems terrible, and the players (regardless) should leave that group... Fun video, mate!

I like the presentation, and it makes sense that the two would be connected! Bonus points are given to you to for reaching into older editions lore to help with the idea!

OMG I love the raptor jesus stat block, great descriptive text there brudder, got a laugh outta me. Not sure if it fits any of the capaigns Ive played in but well done.

Damn the tone jump from the opening to a cartoon bird followed by sexy sax threw me for a hell of a loop.

Ha😂 this was the best take on the 44 rules

Cool ideas!

Love the idea. Might be usefull later. Also, love the art. Welldone.

Awesome idea, I will use this as a bbeg for a ocean campaign

Just found this channel, with this video

I came here expecting a D&D creepypasta, and now I'm kinda disappointed tbh lol

Nice concept. Thanks for sharing freely.

This is really cool, will definitely use some of this as my campaign is currently on a sea arc,, thanks!

My read on the GM is he was being a troll. But this also nicely illustrates a problem I have with people who take pride in being killer GM's. As the GM in this story did, killing the players is trivial. As a GM you have almost complete control. Killing the players is never a hard task. The hard task is getting them to all have fun, to feel challenged but not overwhelmed.

Do you take submissions?

I mean i got halfway through the story before i have to clock in for work. This campaign actaully sounded pretty fun. Ranger sounds like more of a problem than a gm that couldve just used some feed back.

Four hours he sat there waiting for you to finally give up so he could simply say rockfall everyone dies and claim he won at Dnd

Now I have an idea for a cactus tower village inhabited by Owlfolk. Not sure about the Dancing Cacti. Polymorphed Goblins? Pixies casting illusions to lure travellers into a Sarlacc type of pit?

Hello there I have seen your channel Very low subscribers. Not getting enough video views. your video SEO score very low.. There are some reasons for this. And your channel needs organic marketing. This will increase video views. Such videos are in high demand on KZbin Increase your popularity on KZbin. KZbin channel is popular platform. Search engine optimization. Let's talk about it when you have time

Sounds to me like the GM abandoned his original plot when the ranger laughed in the hirelings face making them take the girl and leave. And just went and made everything up as he went while loosely connecting aspects of his original story

While not the light hearted adventure the group wanted, I kind of like the batshit absurdity of this campaign lol. With a better GM this would rule

3:22 I'm not sure that was really the player's fault. The whole table wanted to play a wacky fantastical game and now you all were stuck in a super-cereal lifelike game. Honestly, I'm surprised the ranger stuck it out long enough to get to that point in the story.

Curious about the awesome artwork here. Love it! Where is it from, who is the artist?

That is a straight up nightmare. On the upside, I will use this as a cautionary tale for future stories.

Sounds like a mash-up of "Rime of the Frost Maiden" and "Curse of Strahd" that then almost immediately fell off a cliff.

Great video but your intro is tooooooooooooooo long. Just get into the topic

Well they were kind enough to tell us that they are not following the books and decided instead to go the usual "modern audience" root, so no, it won1t work.

I LOVE THE ART OF VENGER

A buncha guys hanging out and doing barbarian things is so cute!

Too many shadow monsters

Is this an AJ Picket channel?

I actually love this art, I think the dmg design is fantastic and brilliant, the dragon is super cool, and the monster manual looks great too.

Heads up your sound balance is off. The music was really loud followed by your quiet voice. It went from a scream to a whisper.

Are these new books still going to be 5e or do we need to pick up these up for a 6th addition?

1. I'm timing turns. I don't give a fuck if it's unfair in your opinion cause your spells are hard or you don't know what square to move to, you get 1 minute to know all the actions you want to take or I skip your turn. 2. If you want harder fights, bring a second character sheet and expect to twiddle your thumbs when you die. I'm not going to baby anyone. 3. If you call me or my rolls unfair, I'll get up and go home, and if you got a ride with me you can find your own way back and suck it up. 4. I'm going to take your characters loot away as regularly as you want it given out. Rule 3 will apply here. 5. If you don't act out any of your persuasion or intimidation or any other social checks you fail, before you even roll. You fail immediately because you aren't even trying and you're making the game lame for everyone else. 6. If you don't pick up cues for "side quests" that's not my problem. Get over yourself, it's not a video game, it's a role playing pen and paper based game with miniatures. I'm not holding your hand if you choose not to pursue shit. 7. If you move to a square in combat there's no take backs. 8. You tell every single person what you're doing before you do it. You don't fucking roll dice and then say you're casting fireball. You tell us all. 9. I will give out exhaustion more frequently. If you argue, go home or you can actually fight me over it or you can dm yourself. 10. Every snide comment you make to an npc will be remembered and paid back in triplicate. You all seem to believe there is little consequence. 11. You will not be given a mega dungeon every session. A temple is not the size of a small city, neither is a cave. This shit will happen when it's natural and organic. Go play some roguelike if you want that. 12. The travel portion is done. You wanna travel continents doing literally whatever you want whenever you want? Go play world of Warcraft or play dnd with chat gpt. 13. If you're late with no good reason I'm going to halve your characters hit points for the entire session. 14. If you don't show up for no good reason, and that will be determined by me alone if no one else has the guts to say shit for fear of upsetting one another, the first time you'll find yourself losing either a whole level or up to three major items of your own. The second time you do it in a row, you'll be removed from the chat and the group full stop. I have no fucking time for people to not show up. 15. If you get too stoned or drunk to play, I will go home without a warning. Your warning is here. 16. If you get up for bong or smoke or whatever breaks every 10 minutes I will simply pack up and go home. I'm sick of waiting for every bloke to be at the table. 17. Guidance, divination spells, owls and whatever spells I decide are too fucking stupid are banned. Outright. No more fucking guidance. 18. You get one chance at a skill check. If you fuck up, your party doesn't get their chance to do the same check. Think careful who's good at what. 19. Discussion of meta game details in game will result in instant damage to your character 20. Rules lawyering fellow players is encouraged. "Uhm Ackchtually"ing me will just result in me telling you to fuck off. 21. You roll your dice within view of two players who aren't you standard. You roll them neatly and you roll them on the table. Failing to do these three things will auto fail whatever roll you did. Arguing that you actually rolled validly when you clearly didn't is an automatic critical fail. 22. Instant death traps and mechanics are coming into place. If you call these things unfair moving forward, I will laugh at you and tell you to fuck off and cry some more. 23. I will not give you random magical items and vendors will not stock them. They are meant to be rare and hard to acquire. 24. Random encounters in the form of random dragons or strange mysterious road trader or a band of goblin prostitutes isn't going to happen. Go play baldurs gate 3. 25. I don't give two fucks what reddit said about x or y ruling. 26. I actually give less of a fuck about what your mate's and group did 27. Saying anything to me about other players not liking me doing x or y without them saying it directly to me will result in me kicking you out of the group. Don't use someone else to push your own agenda. 28. You're not to sit down and have a two hour discussion about what Samson from Bundoora secondary did three weeks ago when you come to play. Take the 15-20 minutes I use to set up and review my notes to talk to each other, then sit down to play. 29. Saying Shit like "guys come on we're not here to have fun we're here to play dnd, this is serious business" is rude and dismissive of how much work I put into this. I will simply go home if I hear this shit. 30. Don't fucking order food randomly. We will eat together at a specific time or not at all. I don't want food shit all over my things. 31. No food or drinks near any of my dnd gear. If you wreck something you can pay for it. I let one person trash my dm screen once and I never had it replaced by them. In fact I had that person attempt to gaslight me into believing they didn't wreck my shit at all. I'm not stupid, you're an adult. Accept responsibility. 32. Arguments between party members outside of roleplay will be resolved by me giving the definite ruling. If you don't like it, fuck off back home. 33. I don't give a fuck what they did in critical role or what that one guy on reddit said or if you think that it's all make believe so you can do what you want. The world I run works on internal rulings and lore I created specifically for it. 34. Every single person in this chat is having debuffs applied to their characters that should have occurred a long time ago. This will be specific to characters. 35. If you don't bring your sheet, you don't play. 36. If you don't bring dice, borrow some. 37. When we play dnd I'm not your friend. That doesn't mean you treat me like an enemy during the game. It means I'm no longer "being nice". 38. If you treat me poorly in any way shape or form after or during or before the game due to something that happened in the game, you're out. If you cannot separate a game from reality, I think you are a fucking moron, and I have little time to deal with that energy. 39. You will submit your spellists daily (in game). If you do not give me a spell list each in game day, you will not be allowed to cast a single spell or cantrip in combat. I do not trust you guys to not use this against me. 40. If you do not mark off spell slots or you say something like "I remember what I'm at" as a way to justify it, I will simply fail your spell, deal half your health in damage to you and say you have no spells to cast for the rest of the day. 41. If you break literally anything you can buy the replacement that day or not attend till you do. 42. If you complain about the choice of music I fully expect you to bring the whole playlist the next session or to shut the fuck up. 43. Cannot stress enough how little I care about how you feel about my rulings from now on. Oh and rule 44. I'm never just threatening you. I'm promising you.

is the voice AI?

what a cute PNG vtuber! Did you draw it yourself?
